Watch this innovative 3D animation to see what happens inside the body when CPR is performed. Effective compressions create an artificial pump and oxygenated blood is sent to the brain to keep the brain alive. CPR also keeps blood and oxygen moving to the heart muscle itself, so that it can have the best chance of being successfully defibrillated when the AED delivers a life-saving shock.
After a Sudden Cardiac Arrest, brain damage will start to set in within 4 minutes and is irreversible after 10 minutes. CPR is the person’s only chance of survival while waiting for an automated external defibrillator to arrive.
